Hoop marathon nets a loss; negative $400 scored for fund
University of Southern California
Volume LXVII, Number 95 Los Angeles, California Wednesday, March 17, 1976
UKE OLD TIMES—But this time, Bob Trowbridge and Marc Palmer, former
Trojan basketball teammates, played against each other at the First Annual Basketball Marathon last weekend. Administration and faculty "biggies"
turned out for the event, but unfortunately not many spectators did. The
marathon, to aid the J. Tillman Hall scholarship fund, suffered a $400 loss.

It doesn’t appear that any undergraduate in physical education will be benefiting in the immediate future from the J. Tillman Hall Scholarship Fund.
The first annual basketball marathon, held Saturday and Sunday and sponsored by the Physical Education Majors Club, did not raise enough money to cover even a portion of the proposed scholarship. In fact, the event resulted in an approximate loss of $400.
"We failed financially but not in any other way. We did everything we could,” said Rick Quintero, president of the club and organizer of the marathon.
“The publicity was the best. People just didn’t show up. Of course I’m disappointed. But the important thing is we got it off the ground and we’ll do it again next year.” Quintero said.
The loss occurred when only about $600 of the $1,000 budget was recovered through sponsor donations and ticket sales. The breakdown of expenditures was approximated at $575 for participant

tire procedure, we anticipate we’ll be able to take care of everyone. But we have to be able to complete the procedure first. Then we’ll be able to see how to handle the problems, if there are any.
“The problem right now is that all the paperwork from the second lottery hasn’t been completed and we’re not sure how many students from that lottery turned in their $75 deposit.
“The whole system was built with this in mind—there will probably be some people we can’t place right away.”
Some cancellations
Reichl said there will be a 10% to 15% cancellation nate among those who have paid their $75 deposit.
He said the demand for the new apartment facilities had been underestimated. He said about 900 returning students were expected to request space in the 1,900 existing university spaces.

Quintero and the publicity coordinators for th< marathon, Gerry Mouzis and Kirk Stewart, both students in public relations met Tuesday night to discuss possible changes for next year and ideas for raising the $400 necessary to break even. The club itself has no funds at this time.
The first problem was the short period oftime the group had to organize the event. Quintero said he hopes to begin planning six months in advance next year instead of six weeks, as was the case this time.

Students who have not been placed in housing by any of the three housing lotteries may sign up for a waiting list today, Thursday and Friday, said Hans Reichl, director of residential life.
Reichl, said there will be no limit to the number of students who can sign up, because appli cations will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Some students have expressed concern over the fact that 50% of the spaces in coed facilities have been reserved for freshmen under the terms of the new lottery system. Previously, the coed facilities were only available to upperclassmen.
Priorities changed
“Last year the priority system was changed from class priority to facility-need priority,” Reichl said.

Gear up, get away
If students needed some urging to throw on a knapsack and get away from it all, it was sufficiently provided to them Tuesday as Mike Swiderski, director of the Equipment Rental Center, displayed the camping and backpacking equipment available to students.
Swiderski proved that two’s company as he cozied up in one of the center’s tents with Patty Cox, a junior in broadcasting.
The center is open daily and operates out of a room in the Student Activities Center recreation room. Rental information can be obtained from the center at 746-6283.
that we’ve already housed close to 1,400 students,” he said.
Spaces for freshmen
tie said 1,520 spaces have been established for freshmen.
“Now that we’ve established this base for freshmen, we can place the students on the waiting list wherever they want when the openings arise,” Reichl said.
Reichl said there are about 200 spaces in coed facilities being held for freshmen. However, the Board of Trustees has yet to approve the recommendation by the Office of Residential Life and the President’s Advisory Council’s Student Affairs Committee that freshmen be allowed to participate in the coed residence hall program.
“If the trustees aon’t approve those 200 spaces, they’ll be filled by students on the waiting list,” Reichl said.
He said he thought most students would get housed.
“If we can just get through the system, if they (students) will just hang on, we think they’ll get housed,” he said.
Reaccreditation anticipated, says VP; report conciseness praised
By starting in September, he hopes to solicit more and larger donations from sponsors. Eight sponsors gave $40 each to last weekend’s affair.
“I probably could have asked for $100 and gotten it, but I was too pessimistic. I‘ve never done this before and it was very hard to ask for money. But there will be no qualms about it next year,” he said.
Also, many companies seem to plan their budgets between late October and early December and Quintero said he was too late in some cases to obtain larger sums of money.

The self-study, which was produced by 14 USC subcommittees, runs 124 pages.
Cantelon said that tne repon is actually very short in comparison to what is produced by most other universities.
“The committee did a marvelous job of following directions. Most reports are the size of a couple of telephone books,” he said.
Although Cantelon said there was virtually no chance that the university would not be reaccredited, the self-studies do serve a useful purpose.
“The purpose is to require periodically that a university undertake a serious self-study. Unless some outside agency requires it, it usually doesn’t get done. There is a small study every five years and a major study everv 10.” Cantelon said.
After the visiting team reviews the self-study and makes its own examination of the campus, two members of the team are usually chosen to review all the materials and present them to the board of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges along with the recommendation of the visiting committee members.
